If you are going to screw around with your blog template at all, then Sunday is the best time to do it. Weekend traffic is the worst!
So after many people told us that the old, warm orange Domain Maximus was boring and oh-so-Web1.0, we decided to clean up things a little and get a shiny new, busier template. The idea was to get something that would not only be easy to tweak and upload but also a design that would give a little more flexibility. Now we can not only highlight the latest post, but also pick a popular “featured” post, clearly list out the last five and also occasionally type out an Aside. Basically shorter posts in a para or two, mostly with links to something.
A lot of the randomness in the sidebar is gone. Navigation through categories is better and search has been improved. We are also trying to connect the blog to other columns and articles in a more meaningful way. (I am testing out a nice, visually pleasing embedding method.) It might all seem a little too comprehensive for a blog that is hardly ever updated. But the idea is to both clean it up and also use Whatay as a more useful tool in the months to come when a few newer projects will be announced. Wink nudge.
The blog has been on the back-burner ever since I started work on the book. But now that we have crossed that bridge, let’s hope things get busier here. With the new design done, pardon us while we go and work on a few new blogposts.
Yay yay yay!!!
I like the overall design except the “blue windows error” banner.. that looks out of place. And yes, please post more.
Looks quite good…I agree with Manu about the blue bar…
I liked the old format a lot more. Old Domain Maximus was classic, vintage and delightfully ‘desi’. I, for one, loved it for precisely those characteristics.
“same” & I miss the southie roman soldier thingee
Man the new template is awesome!!
The previous template was creating problems when I visited the 'comments' section … this template looks neat!! 🙂
“We are also trying to connect the blog to other columns and articles in a more meaningful way. (I am testing out a nice, visually pleasing embedding method.)”
WE believe that there is a whole team of experts behind this redesign of Whatay. (I am investigating this too.)
The font looks way too formal and almost boring. and maybe do away with the wide screen format for the comments.
I miss the Tam-Brahm Roman pic in the header.
Neat Template – Yayyyy – Looks good 🙂
Hmmm. I liked the older look. This one's much more organised but where's the crazy? Oh, well. The proof of the pudding is in the reading.
The new blog is good
The new blog is good, Waiting for some funny posts!!!!!!!!
Nice template but I miss the 'random post' link u had earlier. That helped when…well, when I want a random post. Can you put that up again?
Working on it. Should be up in a few days' time.
